A Dinner
Party with H.A.L.F.
I’m throwing a party to celebrate the
birthday of H.A.L.F.: ORIGINS, the
third and final book in the H.A.L.F. series. And you’re invited!
Every birthday party must have cake, of
course. *licks icing from lips*
The books inspire the menu. Erika, the main
character, is a vegetarian (though not vegan), so we’re sticking to a mainly
meatless menu.
We’ll start with something that seemed like
a veritable feast to Erika in book two (The
Makers). When you’re so hungry you’ve nearly forgotten what real food
tastes like, a jar of peanut butter is like caviar! Please enjoy mini PB&J
sandwiches as an appetizer. Extra peanut butter. And extra jelly.
Tex spent seventeen years as a lab rat in a
secret, underground facility. When he met Erika, Jack, and Ian, he had lived on
dry nutrition bars formulated to meet his unique requirements. He had one fruit
daily and a viscous liquid of vitamins and amino acids. He had never eaten meat
or sugar.
His first experience with human food was a
hot dog Jack let him try. The thing had been purchased at a convenience mart in
the middle of the night and had been rolling on the heat rollers for who knows
how long! After one bite, Tex pronounced that he did not like eating “dog.” But
some people do enjoy a tasty dog (hot dog that is) so we’re serving that up as
a main, fresh from the grill, no gas station heat rollers.
If you were stuck in a prison cell, do you
think you'd spend time thinking about home, family, and food? Erika did. She
nearly salivated while thinking about her mom’s cooking. In honor of the
Martinez side of Erika’s family, we’re serving bean and rice burritos smothered
in her mom’s green chile sauce.
Erika’s mom isn’t the only family member in
her life that knows what comfort foods she craves. In ORIGINS, Erika butts heads with her Aunt Dana. But there’s a moment
in the book when Aunt Dana comes through for her at the right time by serving
her the perfectly made grilled cheese. Bread golden brown and buttery,
drippping with cheese. Erika likes hers with a side of mustard for dipping.
We’re serving a heaping plate of cheesy, gooey goodness. Condiments of your
choice on the side.
What would a party be without dessert?
We’re serving Tex’s favorite treat. He first had it in book one (The Deep Beneath) when Ian handed him a
long, red rope candy. The chewy candy turned into sugary goo in his mouth that
he said was a bit like chewing plastic but he liked it anyway. Tex gets another
bite of his favorite treat in ORIGINS.
Look, after all I put the poor guy through, the least I could do is allow him
another serving of his favorite sugary goodness. We finish the meal with
Twizzlers for everybody!
